Donald Trump on Sunday proposed a new policy that many critics said is equivalent to legalizing "The Purge."
One comment Trump made drew condemnation on social media, as well as numerous comparisons to The Purge, a film series based on a dystopian world in which the government makes all crimes legal for a 12-hour period.
As reported by Sebastian Smith, AFP Washington desk chief, "Trump in Erie, PA, says in US 'the police aren’t allowed to do their job.' To stop crime, you need 'one really violent day.' He says: 'One rough hour and I mean real rough, the word would get out and it would end immediately.'"
So just let the cops go out and hit the streets free of ethics and legal restraint to just do whatever the fuck they want for an hour to beat the public in submission. That's not at all dictatory. Nope. Not one bit.
It was supposed to happen 4 years ago but trump lost.
Had he won, the trucker convoy would have been a part of it.
(I was witness to some chatter and had this directly communicated to me.)
Also, see: the turner diaries a book. A horrible violent racist book. There's a theme throughout.
"The day of the gun and rope"
One of the organisers of the convoy in Canada loved using the phrase, "day of the rope" in reference to hanging our prime minister. (Also see "diagolon")
The threepers/ 3 percenters ara group that believe it would take 3% of the population to bring about an ethno state.
They operate in Canada and the us and were VERY visible in Ottawa.
Normally when I see a headline like this it is taking Trump out of context or giving a very uncharitable take on what he said. Every once in a while, though, what he said is truly as ad as the headline makes it sound. This is one of those times.
He is literally calling for either The Purge or Kristallnacht! This man is calling for mass murder as a way to solve crime.
Everyone here thinking Trump is saying the quiet part out loud... but as the senile old man he is, I think he just saw the movie and is confusing whatever his handlers told him to say with that he fell as sleep watching on TV
This is all you really need to know about any of this
University of Texas law professor Lee Kovarsky said, "People confuse telling hard truths with just being a total f------ idiot."
Not enough people are shamed into keeping quiet these days, they think they’re being politically incorrect or edgy or owning woke libs. They’re really just letting everyone who knows how things work that they don’t know
Look, Trump is going to say more and more deranged things as time goes by. This is how he ran as president, say something deranged to distract from the last thing that he said was so deranged.
I bet he's actually really upset that two people have tried to kill him, but nobody has tried to kill Kamala. He's going to say more extreme things, get closer and closer to the line, try to give people more upset.... This is how he owns a new cycle. This is his gimmick. This is his playbook. He wants the violence, it feeds his ego.
I'm sure he's talking about giving police carte blanche to be as violent as they want for an hour. Which is obviously batshit. But it honestly makes me wonder...is he trying to lose this election?
If they actually did that it would probably start a second civil war for the USA, right? Good luck, people across the pond. Try to keep your country sane

I need to use that. For my whole life people have always stated obvious shit and hateful statements and insist that being hateful and insulting automatically means the truth.
To be fair, he probably meant that only cops should be allowed to use violence with impunity, certainly not the... wink wink nudge nudge... "urban people".
at any given moment on any given day, with a little bit of covert communications, any group of people could rise up against another in a Rwandan style genocide. we are all connected via our phones. all you have to do is have a willing population and the right person to give 'the signal'.
Wow, that’s quite the statement! 🔥 It’s essential to remember that effective crime policies should focus on community trust and safety, not chaos and violence. Trump certainly knows how to grab headlines, but let’s hope cooler heads prevail. Voting is our best tool to shape a peaceful and just society—so make sure you're registered! Stay engaged, stay informed, and let's work towards positive change together. 🌟🗳️
Honestly, to me, that is less insane than campaigning that you will push for taxing unrealized capitsl gains. Neither move the needle for me tho I'm still voting Harris but this tax proposal shit of hers is flat out the dumbest shit I've ever heard.
I really don't see the problem. This country was founded on genocide. For everyone horrified by this and says we're a different country, it's not like we gave back the land we murdered 40 million people for so we're not really sorry for what we did. The purge worked here before, it's working in Gaza now, it's proven.
You all lived through a trump presidency before and we are about to live through a whoever runs the biden one. None of this crazy shit is going to come to pass. It's just going to be more of the same.
The only thing consistent since obama's second term has been the decline.
